Re: captured He219 on ship
Thanks for the pointer, michiel.
The same seller offers some nice WNF factory photos showing the construction of Bf 109 G's sometimes in 1943. |

Re: captured He219 on ship
The He219 appears to have exhaust dampers. NASM one does not. Also, given the tail plane is not on the aircraft in the picture as it is being loaded, confirms why discussions about Wrk Nr. erupted since a tail number may not match the plate in the tail section.

Re: captured He219 on ship
obviously...
as I said, all the originals of these photos the seller is offering were sold on ebay over a year ago, and the He219 pic was part of that group, as well as the helicopters. This is from a large lot of photo taken of these aircraft as they were being boarded onto the HMS Reaper. I only managed to get a few of them, which I posted above. These are all known photos, and are 8x10 prints from the originals. All the Me262 images were already published in a book...so why some of these prices are getting insane for copies is pretty insane. |

Re: captured He219 on ship
Dear Harrison,
I don't recognize seeing them in print before. Can you specify the book they can be found in? Regards, Richard |

Re: captured He219 on ship
It came out 2 weeks ago. It is about the Flying Heritage Collections aircraft, including their Me262, and the history behind it. Though I have not seen the book, the Reaper pics were supplied for it.

Re: captured He219 on ship
Dear Harrison,
The only book listed on Amazon is: Flying Warbirds: An Illustrated Profile of the Flying Heritage Collection's Rare WWII-Era Aircraft However, this came out supposedly in Nov. 2014. Is this the one or is it a newer book. Can anyone help? Regards, Richard |
